Extremely relatable! Worked in one of the Big 4 for a year as an article trainee (joined a week just before lockdown 😭🤦♂️). There's literally no work life balance even after having work from home. Nobody cares about you unless it comes to work. Always chasing deadlines and closing the engagements. I was not learning anything new which would have a value addition from academics point of view or professional point of view. Worse of all, health took a serious toll. I have taken the bold decision to leave EY and joined in a smaller firm. Very much satisfied that I took the right decision.

On my first day they assigned me work , thinking i know everything ( I clearly mentioned in my interview that I was a fresher and never worked in this field) I worked till 10 at night on my first day and the next day I started at 9 and was working till 7 and still my senior was expecting me to work more hours , I literally lied and told her that I have another part time job from 7-9 at night so I cannot extend beyond 6:30 but I have compensate the time by starting at 8 in the morning!! Literally I have friends who take pride in working long hours with no work life balance, I legit don’t understand them

Thanks for such an honest video on your experience at the big4. I myself have worked at both the big4s that you mentioned and have had similar experiences. It’s unbelievable how employees are treated as mere “resources”!! I left the big4 after about 7 years and started my own venture..and I have to put it out there..I didn’t ever learn as much at the big4 as I did by trying to build my own venture! They expect you to work on a certain domain in a certain industry and there is this pre-defined xyz process and presentation format for everything which in the end really limits your outlook to see the business/industry as a whole! Having said that, the entire experience did hone my leadership skills and helped develop my overall personality but that’s about it! I have some sour memories and would not recommend staying there for long other than maybe in the initial years of your career! Whats sad is that in the industry as a whole, having a big4 badge is considered a big deal and does act as a stepping stone! Hope to change this one day.

But there was this thing in my mind that It would have been more better to join Big4s as they pay you more than mid-sizes.

This is exactly my situation right now. I don't work at big 4 but I am currently working at one of the top 7 firms. When I started off with my CA journey I was motativated and enthusiastic about my career but as soon as I entered work force, the motivation kind off started withering off. That vigour started to get lost. Initially, I joined an Indian firm wherein there was no proper audit procedure and auditing was just manual work of checking bank statements etc. The bosses and seniors were mostly were unsupportive and unprofessional. Then I got excited to join my current firm. It felt good initially but again after a week or so the environment became worse. That boy of 22 who is all new and confused got even more confused and depressed. The feeling of helplessness is real. Even my stipend is deducted without them informing me the reason. I feel difficult to concentrate on my studies although I am trying my best. I always had a dream to join big4 in transfer pricing department but now I really need to reconsider my decision. Thanks ma'am, for this candid video, I can totally relate with you. I hope this helps other budding professionals as well. Thanks again!

That's so true, the overall key is to have a good manager in big4 (which we have zero control on), if you don't then it would be tough to survive. Having overall 4 years in big4 consulting, I can say, you learn from end to end how to run a project at very junior level. However, mental health should be our first priority, and I would suggest being your own advocator if you are working in big4.

In Oct, Deloitte came knocking on my door with a package and a location so lucrative that one just couldn't say no. But when I got to know about the work culture BIG-4 has, I knew I'll lose myself as a person. They called me several times to come join them but in the end, it wasn't for me. I am a CMA and luckily the education has kept me in a job. Now I work for a university as their Chief Auditor (and I am loving it here) and looking forward to getting my PhD started.

Same happened with me in my school-days. I remember when I was in 9th standard I used to be beaten up and got scolded by my mathematics teacher just because I used to take maths tuition classes from another teacher( his rival). That all this beating and disrepect had hit me so hard that I started hating Mathematics and School including my school- friends who used to make a fun of me. My self esteem became zero. Later on I changed my school eventually. This whole incident still traumatized me. Even at this time I really don't like to get along with friends who were there at that time. I know how it feels like in a company or a circle where you are constantly judged, mistreated by people who you thought to be your well-wisher once. But it's good to come out of it strongly, take a exit from those toxic people and be brave enough to take your stand when it seems the whole world is against you.

In this regard one thing is most important is the distance between your house and job location. So please think over it before joining articleship to far from your house.

I guess its in Most of the CA Firms. I am in a Mid size firm and i felt the same senior, culture, no support, gossips, politics. Everybody is just really competitive even within their "groups".

misleading title, you worked at big 4s for 4 years and 6 months, and at KPMG for 4 years and 1 month.

Khushi, KPMG is a part of the big 4. I worked at KPMG for 5 years then at EY.

Hey your videos are amazing. I had the similar experience wherein I worked for financial audit and later moved on to the risk advisory. Your video is so relatable it made me felt as if I am sharing my experience. Would love to connect with you in person. I am glad that I found your channel.

Thanks for sharing all your positive and negative experience it helped me to get more clear about my goals regarding CA, before entering CA course I always wanted to do my training from Big Fours... But after watching your video and also conversing with some other CA's I found clarity towards my goals and long term plans, thus now I am more motivated and am more focused on my studies and goals, I'm not very good with following orders and working under someone, so it will be best for me to start from working at a mid size firm and then making my own firm. Thank You Very Much.

I am now old. I trained in a small firm in London and took a job at what was one of the big 8 firms in those days. In some ways it was the best experience of my life. In 1985 I audited one of the accepting houses. In that year the City went through a revolution. But the problem came with a small bank. I was left on my own as the senior staff saved a major client from a hostile takeover. I suffered badly and was basically fired as the stress got to me. Fast forward 30 years, I am in New Zealand. I became a liquidator for stupid reasons. I sued a big 4 audit firm which settled, along with directors, for $NZ 40 million (£21 million). I got only a small fraction because it was litigation funded. My membership of CAANZ has been suspended. If anyone wants to know why, let me know. Is it possible that I have offended the accounting gods? Big firms are as ruthless as oil companies or banks. Be warned.

I felt every single point you shared.. i have experienced every single thing you mentioned +got molested too.. It’s not just in big 4s.. it happens in top 20 too What a disaster those 3 years were. I felt the odd man out always. I’m at a point where i have developed a fear for working in corporates😖

I'm currently started working in a start-up (company is in market since 2016) and they have external consultants because they don't want full time employees. Recently that external consultant tried to get me fired and fucked me up so bad that I literally cried since it's been only 4 months since I have joined and didn't want to get a blot on my CV as a fresher. I somehow managed to stay at my position but I have no senior support. Everything I have to do by myself after watching KZbin video for guidance n all and still they find faults in my work instead of guiding. This video is totally relatable 😓
